While most of us are upset on Juventus , can we take some time and appreciate Benfica ? They are on a roll this year in UCL and last night proved us again that they are indeed a better team than Juventus.
For Juve....I'm still shocked to see Allegri still a coach in this morning as I was 100% sure that he will be dismissed...
You are right, we have to praise them and naturally we have to talk about it (Benfica) because they are winners, and they have played tirelessly, which has made Juventus look like amateurs against them in the Champions League this season by winning the game at the Allianz Stadium and also win at Estadio do Sport Lisboa e Benfica.
I just wonder why they are upset with Juventus because basically, in terms of calculations, Juventus no longer has a chance to qualify for the round of 16. Also, in their first match when Juventus played at home against Benfica, in fact Benfica can beat Juventus. In addition, PSG as the strongest team in this group, in fact PSG could not beat Benfica in the two matches they have lived in this group phase.
So yes, Juventus' defeat last night was indeed a very possible result and even, if for example Juventus could hold Benfica to a draw last night and/or win the match, in fact Juventus will still not qualify for the round of 16, because the calculations are still difficult and will not make Juventus to qualify.
Well, if we had realized this from the start, then of course they could accept the defeat experienced by Juventus, because what should have made the emotions rise was about Massimiliano Allegri. I don't know what Juventus expected with Allegri who has done such a terrible devastation to the team, but they still haven't tried to find a replacement until now.
But regarding Benfica, they really can't be underestimated this season because they look very ready to be able to compete with other top teams in the round of 16 later.
